CLASSES IN HOTELS THAT HOSTED THE ''SAF EXCELLENCE ACADEMIES'' T he class is more of a demonstration session with 70% thereof being dedicated to practice, during which the SAF trainer shares his expertise with his class. The need for products and material is therefore limited. Participants will be given the opportunity to, in turn, practice alongside the SAF trainer “Meilleur Ouvrier de France”. The class will follow the job competency contained in the passport. Each class will be validated by the “Meilleurs Ouvriers de France” with a signature and a stamp in his passport. Where applicable, the SAF trainer will be able to add his personal appreciation (such as “Excellent Professional” for instance). During the class, the participant will receive the course materials that will allow him/her to practice between classes. THE PARTNERSHIP “JOURNEY TOWARDS PROFESSIONAL EXCELLENCE” A partnership between SAF and an hotel group will be developed to implement the corporate approach (exclusive or semi-exclusive). As part of this partnership, the hotel group selects one of the 2-years' courses from the 8 available passports ''Journey towards Professional Excellence''. 8 PASSPORTS NUMBER OF CLASSES (OVER 2 YEARS) Gastronomy Chef 7 Chef, ''Charcutier'', Caterer, Butcher Pastry Chef 7 Pastry, Chocolatier, Ice-cream maker Food & Beverage 7 ''Maître d'hôtel'' & Table Art, Barman, Sommelier, Cheesemonger Baker Chef 4 Baker Housekeeping 4 Housekeeper, Laundry, Florist Landscape Gardener (hotel) 4 Gardener Florist (hotel) 4 Florist Hairdresser & Makeup Art (Grooming hotel) 4 Hairdresser (hotel), Make-up art (hotel) CLASSES BY MEILLEURS OUVRIERS DE FRANCE EXCLUSIVE, SEMI-EXCLUSIVE OR INDIVIDUAL FORMULAS I f the hotel group hosts the “SAF Excellence Academy”, it can choose an “Exclusive” formula with only 20 participants from the group, or “Semi-exclusive” with 10 participants only from the group and the possibility for SAF to complete with other external participants outside the group. However, in the “exclusive” formula, the passports can be modified or adjusted to a certain extent with the guidance of SAF. If the hotel group does not choose either the “Exclusive” or “Semi-exclusive” formula, it can still individually purchase SAF Passports for the staff of its choice. Provided that there are ongoing SAF training sessions in its country. In such a case the hotel will be invited to sign a “Hotel Excellence Charter” as a commitment to provide the necessary means allowing the participants to put into practice their newly acquired skills. 16 www.servicealafrancaise.com
